I wear my AirPods all the time. I lose my keys and stuff all the time. If AirPods had cameras, maybe a future Siri could help me keep track of stuff. I’m a heavy user of AirTags, for my diary/calender/agenda, keychain, parked car, certain bag packs, and so on. I think it'd be nice if Siri could 'see' where I put my sunglasses. Maybe you have to ask it to keep track.

But for my stuff like my sunglasses, which I lose at least five times a day, an AirTag is inconveniently large. I still attach them to the cord of the glasses, but it’s not ideal.

“Siri, where did I leave my sunglasses?”

I ask it to find my keys daily, whispering in my Apple Watch (softly so my housemates don’t look at me strange), and for me it would be great if it helps me find my sunglasses too.

Let me know what you think! I can add answers based on comments I think.

Like the heart rate sensor in my AirPod Pro 3, I have no use for camera on AirPods. For me they are just to listen to media, or use as discrete "hearing aids".
